I-40

An interesting series of events happened upon me lately. My aunt from California decided to buy a new car. Selling my vehicle for dirt cheap has left me without a vehicle since May 8th. My research professor leaving to take a job in Pittsburgh left me with nobody else to bum rides with off work. So of course, when this opportunity to purchase a practically brand new 2009 Ford Fusion, I could not refuse!
I realized that throughout the entire trip back through New Mexico and Arizona on I40, I felt like I was on the movie set for “The Hills Have Eyes”. So I’m looking around halfway expecting to see irradiated mutants raping RV campers in the desert. Disturbing? Nah. Though, the weather was quite pleasant.
